Happy Friday and Happy 2025. From all of us at jaydeestamping – both two legged and four, we wish you and your families a wonderful 2025 and hope that it is filled with all the things you wish for yourselves.
It’s the start of a new year and it’s also the start of our FestiveFriday Challenges for 2025. Our theme this week is a fun one. In fact, I didn’t even know there was a day dedicated to Winnie the Pooh! As I bought the Stampendous Hugs and stamps last year, I had exactly the right dies I needed to complete our challenge.
Here’s a sneak peek:
Such a cute little face 🙂
Here’s our challenge for this week and, just as a reminder, you don’t have to follow the theme for our challenge, all you need to do is incorporate at least 3 of the items from our INSPO list into your creation. As for me, Winnie the Pooh and his pals were one of my absolute favorite sets of characters as a child so I was happy to go all out and embrace the theme.
I began by die-cutting the big and little bears in kraft card stock. I added some sponged brown ink to add a little more depth to both of them and stamped their features. I die-cut the heart and the I U letters and used the heart as a replacement for “love”. I decided to have the big mamma bear carrying the little bear and the little bear carrying the sentiment!
For the background I used the embossing folder we get in a recent Simon Says Stamp card kit. I just love it.
Here’s my card:
I hope you will join us and play along with our challenge this week. We would love to see what you create. As always, the design team have some fabulous inspiration for you.
I’ll be back next week with some cards. In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
Hugs
Jaydee
